The Roy Lichtenstein retrospective currently at the Hayward is basically dope. There are too many of the dull later works, and too few of the best 60's stuff ("Why, Brad darling, this painting is a masterpiece! My, soon you'll have all of New York clamoring for your work!"). However it's still stunning to see so many of his most famous pieces gathered together. The Hayward shop is selling a bunch of great posters, but best of all they have a kit for making DIY Lichtensteins. If that seems like too much work, you can pay online for a Lichtenstein cartoon portrait of yourself. Alternatively if you're obsessive and have a ton of spare bricks you could make a Lichtenstein from Lego.

In totally unrelated news: oral sex can lead to serious injury, death, or a mistaken case of TB.
